Blues In The Night |
My mama done tol' me, |
When I was in knee pants, |
My mama done tol' me, Son! |
A woman’ll sweet talk |
And give ya the big eye; |
But when the sweet talkin’s done, |
A woman’s a two face |
A worrisome thing |
Who’ll leave ya t’sing |
The blues in the night |
Now the rain’s a-fallin', |
Hear the train a-callin' |
Whoo-ee (my mama done tol' me) |
Hear that lonesome whistle |
Blowin' 'cross the trestle, |
Whoo-ee (my mama done tol' me) |
A whoo-ee-duh-whoo-ee, ol' clickety clack’s |
A-echoin' back the blues in the night |
The evenin' breeze’ll start the trees to cryin' |
And the moon’ll hide its light |
When you get the blues in the night |
Take my word, the mockin' bird’ll |
Sing the saddest kind o' song |
He knows things are wrong and he’s right |
From Natchez to Mobile, |
From Memphis to St. Jo, |
Wherever the four winds blow, |
I been in some big towns, |
An' heard me some big talk, |
But there is one thing I know |
A woman’s a two face, |
A worrisome thing |
Who’ll leave ya t’sing the blues in the night. |
My mama was right, |
There’s blues in the night. |
